It is not bad that the players who are veterans have action, I also think that 38-39 years is not that bad, nor old, taking only young players is not good either, just look at the example that Luis's Spain team gave Enrique, a total failure, they had so many good players and they didn't want to take the ones who really play well, so taking veteran players and young players is the right combination, I do believe that veterans are needed so that they can get ahead Otherwise they would have the action that Spain had in Qatar.

It's not just Spain. In the playoff phase Portugal also tried the same approach and failed. What the teams need is an ideal mix of younger players and the experienced ones. France is a perfect example for such a team, and Argentina also comes close. And I don't agree with the argument that 38-29 year old players should not play for the national teams. Nowadays the players maintain adequate fitness levels, so that they remain competitive even at that age.

Yes, I really think that here the good combination of veteran players with younger ones is ideal, why? young players run a lot and have impressive speed, something that veteran players don't have unless you're CR7 or Messi who eventually are jets when they run, however when we see that in the news even right here on the forum they give it very Veteran players are tough because of their age, and yes, they may not have the same speed, but they are players who, if they leave the ball in an extreme situation, have the clarity to do the right thing, even over youngsters.

Beckham WAS working on it, but to me it looked like it was a futile attempt and would never happen. I mean let's look at the details, one team is PSG, paying him tens of millions of dollars and he would be still playing at a high level without a doubt just as he did for 2 seasons, the other is Barcelona, is youth club he played nearly 20+ years and 15+ professional and won so many and they were willing to pay him a lot too, just that they would have to sell some other players to make it happen.

And another was Saudi Arabia, maybe not as good of a league that's true and they are "trying" something but so far have like 3 or 4 good players, rest of the league sucks but ONE BILLION!! dollars was offered.

When you see these, Inter Miami looks like a joke, and yet one way or another they convinced him, that's a big deal.

Probably he wanted to go to MLS because he had seen other players go there previously! ! That’s what probably inspired him to go there. He is also getting some good treatment to go there. It is not like he is not getting paid well. In fact, he is getting paid quite a handsome amount of money. But it is true that when we think about the other options, it is certainly a little surprising that he went to Inter Miami.

Did anyone expected that Ronaldo will make a move to Al-Nassr. It happened and a season over, throughout the season he was the talk. Whether he performed or not is secondary. Same as that Messi had made a big decision that were not in the list. He's much welcomed and he himself had mentioned his dream enjoying the life in USA and now it had come true. The universe is turning to be more connected through different leagues.

When Cristiano Ronaldo was last at Manchester United and when the issue of his leaving the club came in front of everyone, no one thought for a single moment that Cristiano Ronaldo could go to Saudi Arabia but to everyone's surprise, he joined Al-Nassr Club in Saudi Arabia at the last moment.
Same goes for Lionel Messi this season when he was out of power with PSG it was almost certain that he was without class but we all expected that Messi might not return to Barcelona or go to the Saudi League but at the last minute he joined Inter Miami in the United States. That is, apart from the club of these two, only they both knew about it and surprisingly they showed such a surprising act.

I don't agree with comparing these two players like that. Ronaldo left Manchester United because he had a poor performance there even in the first weeks in were playing on his team he got enough support but the Ronaldo we saw in the last months was not like the Rinaldo we saw in Real Madrid.
But Messi had a good performance in the last world cup and in PSG but he didn't get the support he had to get and that's why he left PSG for Inter Miami where can earn more money and he obviously could choose better teams but he put his family as first priority.
That's why I think even if we are going to see both players in the next world cup Messi can have much more chance there.

You are right, but what happens here is that when we talk about these two stars, they are the ones that give the most emotions in world football, until now I have not seen a player who has the same impetus as them, and apart from the same level that is from another world, for me both players did not give the required importance, they treated CR7 very badly, and Messi was not very good that the fans made that rudeness to him, and apart from that, the sheikh forced him to lose forgiveness, they are things that really people do not see, only the one who lives it is the one who knows, I think that for that reason they both went far away, to have more peace of mind doing what they like the most, I hope to see Messi and CR7 in the next world cup.
